Well that entirely depends but in general if the user is connecting
to the same database from the same network or machine that others users
already use you only need to create user.

However if the user is on a different network and you haven't allowed
access from that network you may need to modify the pg_hba.conf

create user creates a database user account.

pg_hba.conf provides a set of access permissions regarding where and how
users and/or computers can connect to the database.

You MUST have both permission in the pg_hba.conf AND a valid user
account to log in.

Does that make sense?
